something i've said for a long time is that American politicians think of cities in extractive or colonial terms: they exist as spaces for work and leisure that you **go to**, not spaces that you **live in**
every day, a city is occupied by people from the suburbs who use the resources, and cities should be grateful for this and arrange themselves to serve the needs of their colonial "masters."
